Hello,Have a question on the most ideal way for removing a SFIC core. Came across an auction for two 613 finish SFIC deadbolts. Exactly what I was needing. Already have been working with pinning and re-pinning SFIC cylinders but never had the need to deal with any locks without keys. Everything I have dealt with has been new or new without existing cores.So, that brings me to the point of what is the best way for getting these two cores out of the locks. Have two new 613 finish cores ready to go.Should have the needed bits for drilling out the core, but want to make sure I'm not heading down the path of more resistance by drilling.

So, if anybody can comment on what the easiest option would be for removing these SFIC cores.

we dont openly discuses destructive entry into locks as this is a hobby picking site.I would recommend picking them to control or call a locksmith to do it. also a picture of the locks showing them not in use will get you more responses in the future

also welcome to the forum.

You got me on the experience part as I have very little. Given that, I had figured bumping or drilling were the only other options. I have a bump key for this keyway but never had much luck with that method.

If you think picking would be the best or easier method, where do you recommend getting tools from?
